Entoloma luteum is a mushroom in the family Entolomataceae. It was described in 1902 by mycologist Charles Horton Peck.[4] Found in North America, it fruits singly or in clusters on the ground in mixed forest. Its angular spores are non-amyloid, hyaline (translucent), and measure 9–13 by 8–12 µm. Entoloma murrayi is a lookalike species that has a more orange cap with a pointy umbo.[5]
